FRUSTRATION

My husbands phone has not been working since the 15th August 2019 as he is getting an error “Emergency calls only”, we did a trouble shooting with the phone first by going to mobile networks, changing the network, restarting the phone, still the same, We phone the call Centre on the 15th and they did the same steps and advised since its not working, she needs to log a call with the network department and gave me reference number: ***9 and was advised that the turnaround time is 72 hours and someone will contact us, we waited and no feedback, we phoned the call Centre again on the 28th August and enquired the lady I spoke to advised that the query is still not resolved, I must wait another 72 hours and if I don’t get a message after that, I need to phone back. Really what nonsense is that, I told the lady that Telkom will still debit the money on the 20th even though I haven’t used the phoned, I asked if I will be reimbursed and she told me she doesn’t know, I requested to speak to her Team leader and was advised that her Team leader is on another call but she can take down my details and the team leader will call me back after she’s done with her call, until today I haven’t received a call back, I really cannot believe the service we are receiving after having so many contracts with Telkom, I NEED THIS RESOLVED AND HOPE THAT WE WILL BE COMPENSATED FOR THE DURATION OF THE DAYS THAT WE DIDN’T USE THE PHONE…….can we be contacted on *** and get this sorted out, this is really frustrating…..

IM REALLY GATVOL with Telkom, This complaint was logged on the 30th August 2019 until today this matter has still not been dealt. The phone is still the same ever since .I phoned Telkom on the 22/10/2019 to follow up on the request as Telkom did not phone to sort this out, I spoke to a SineNhlanhla Thabete(Teamleader) who advised me that the notes on your system from the technical dept states that they contacted us and did trouble shooting with us which is a lie because no one phoned us, she advised that she will escalate the matter to the Manager in charge Alesandro to contact me the next day(23/10/0019) @ 9, he never phoned me, I phoned the call Centre again after 11 to speak to this Alesandro that was supposed to contact me but he was unavailable and I then to Zama Bhengu(Team leader) who also apologized and advised that she will also escalate to Alesandro and call me back to find out if I was phoned, until this day she never phoned me, I phoned the call Centre again and requested to speak to Alesandro and was again advised that he is not available but I must speak to another Team Leader(Clifford Masilo Mohale) who also apologized but still not phone call from the so said Manager, he advised he will also escalate. I was so tired and ****ed off because Telkom is just useless by promising to call me back but none of the above people phoned me back, on the 24th Priscilla from the technical team phone me to make arrangements for the technicians to come to my place to check the tower etc, appointment was for today @ 9, no one phoned me, Phoned the number *** to find out where the technician was(AGAIN I HAD TO PHONE AND FOLLOW UP)she phoned the technician and told me that he can only make it for 11 or 11:30(MY SATURDAY WASTED WAITING FOR TELKOM)@ 13:16 I AGAIN PHONED PRISCILLA to find out where the technician was, to my concern she advise that the technician was there he phone my husband on *** and couldn’t get hold of him, ROUND OF APPLAUSE TO TELKOM FOR PHONING ON THE NUMBER THAT IS AFFECTED, I said to her that my number is on the case why would they phone on that number but they phoned my number to make arrangements…..She phone me back to make another appointment for Monday…IM SORRY TELKOM, U CAN SEND THE TECHNICIANS TO MY PLACE TO FETCH THE PHONE THAT HASN’T BEEN WORKING SINCE AUGUST, REFUND ME AND CANCEL MY CONTRACT BECAUSE WE MERELY JUST A NUMBER TO YOU AND NOT A CUSTOMER…YOU EVEN HAVE THE NERVE TO STILL SEND US EMAILS TO SAY OUR CONTRACTS ARE DUE FOR AN UPGRADE, U CAN SHOVE UR UPGRADES, PLEASE JUST CANCEL THE CONTRACT, REFUND US, I SED TO LOVE TELKOM THAT I EVEN HAD MY FAMILY MEMBERS PORTED OVER BUT I LOST MY CONFINDENCE IN YOU AND YOUR STAFF………………
